This suction movement is so strong that a clearly audible noise develops and even for fodder, which exceeds the snout diameter by far (for example large ghost shrimp), is easily torn and in-sucked. Immediately after aspirating the food remainders withdraw in from of a breath-fine nebula cloud from the sides of the seahorses head, it seems as if its head steams.

Already a few days old babies look exactly at each piece of plankton or brine shrimp before the suck it.
